How much does a slimming facial injection cost?

In general, the price of slimming injections is associated with the brand used. Common brands include Hengli slimming injections, Juci slimming injections, and Botox (Botox Cosmetic) slimming injections, with approximate prices as follows: Hengli slimming injections, reference price 1,000–5,000 RMB per injection; Juci slimming injections, reference price 1,500–3,000 RMB per injection; Botox slimming injections, reference price 3,000–5,000 RMB per injection. Factors influencing the cost include facial muscle condition, doctor's experience, and regional differences.

Slimming injections typically involve injecting botulinum toxin type A into the masseter muscles. The toxin binds to nerve endings at the neuromuscular junctions of the jaw muscles, blocking or interfering with the release of acetylcholine, causing the muscles to relax and gradually atrophy, thereby achieving a slimmer facial appearance. Note that specific results may vary from person to person.

Factors affecting the price:

① Muscle condition: The state of facial muscles is closely related to the cost of slimming injections. Generally, individuals with more developed masseter muscles require larger doses of medication, resulting in higher prices.

② Doctor’s experience: Under normal circumstances, at正规 medical institutions, doctors with greater experience and higher qualifications tend to charge more. This is because their assessment of skin and muscle conditions and injection techniques are more accurate, leading to higher patient satisfaction and lower failure rates—thus justifying higher fees. In contrast, general practitioners at standard clinics usually charge less.

③ Regional differences: Due to varying levels of economic development across cities and regions, injection costs can differ significantly. Typically, prices in first- and second-tier cities are higher than those in third- and fourth-tier cities, although service quality and procedural standards are generally better in larger cities.

It is recommended to visit a正规 hospital and select an appropriate slimming injection brand under professional medical guidance. After receiving the injection, avoid facial massage, facial masks, makeup application, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy or irritating foods such as pepper, chili, garlic, etc., to prevent interference with recovery.
